Houston was tried in New Orlans-this -week for the shooting and Wounding of Mt. Geb. Osmond in the af fray at the Mascot o$.ce on'the 12th of Jan uary. A sensational and prominent feature i- the trial' was a lengthy and caustic statement made to the jury by the accuseed. The arguments were closed and the Judge's charged delivered last evening. The jury remained out all night and this morning returned with a verdict of not guilty. An entertainment to consist of a fair and daioe will be -given at Hook and Ladder hall aest Saturday evening, under the ans pleas o the Episcopal Sunday School, the objeet' being to raise funds for the pur dhase of a library for the school.

" SENATOR 4LOQA RE-EI.OTED. The remarable-tour-monthsa- dead-look in the Illinois Legislature on the question of choosing a Uhitdd 8tite' Sinator, was brought to a close on the 19th inst., by the relection of *en. John A. Lndan, who rp ceived 105-votes, a majority of one. The Dem ocratic members voted for Judge Lambert Tree. The success of Logan has caused general rejoicing among the Republicans of the country, and even Harper's Weekly, which so vigorously opposed Blaine and Logan in the recent Presidential contest, editorially commeads the return of the Il linois statesman-to the Senate. Glen. Lgan is an earnest partisan and for that reason has incurred the hearty dis like of tjp p.emtra¥y, but his apility and integritj' ariW ubquestioned and the vigor and manlamea he always displays in the advocacy of what be conceives to be right compel the respect and admiration of his bitterest opponents. BASB BAIL.--The Plaquemine Viguete dame to Donaldsonville last Sunday and admini4tetd a deodnd deifeat to the Nolans of this place by the subjoined score: Viguets............ 00 1 0 5 1 0 0 1 Nolan............10 2 00 0000 -3 Umpire -Henry Gainer of New Orleans. Scorers-U. A. Bakes. for Viguets, R. IlMcCul loh for Nolans. Time of game-two hours. Strikes called-Childs. 38; Tearney, 33; Burke 20. Balls called-Off Childs, 86; Tearney, 38; Burke, 20. The game was witnessed by about 200 people and was very interesting, though a number of bad errors were made on both sides. It will be noticed that the Nolan batteries made a better record on strikes and called balls than tVie semi-professional city battery employed by the Viguets. The Nolans attribute their defeat to costly errors at critical periods of the game. The Viguets, on the other hand, were lucky enough to bunch their hits just where they would do most good. The Plaquemine boys arrived on. the morning train and were entertained at the Lee Hotel during their stay. The bell game was begun at 5 o'clock, which enabled the visitors to re turn home on the evening train at 4:33 Capt. Bourgeois and the young gentlemeE of his fine club are highly esteemed here and their visits will always prove weloome events. Another game between the Nolan: and Viguets will take place within a fe, ---fr. At the conclusion of the Viguet-Nolan match last Sunday, the Fortiers and Nolans started a second game, but it was suspen ded at the close of the sixth inning as most of the boys were top tired to play with any spirit. Thp s.orp stood 13 to 7 in favor of the Fortiers. The Fortiers will .o to Plaquemine on the 7th of June to meet the Vigqets, and it is expected a return game betweel the same clubs will take place at Donaldson ville the Sunday following. The Nolans and Picards play their firdt match of the season at Dutchtown on the 7th of June, and the match will doubtless prove one of the most interesting features of the festival to be held at that place on the 6th and 7th. If the proposed Fortier-Vignet game for June 14, at Nolan park, is arranged. the Nolans will probably run down to Pain courtville to play the (harlet club. The Charlets and Nolans play here to-morrow. The Quicksteps and O. K's of Shreveport are organized for the coming season and are both seeking games with clubs from Donaldsonville and other parts of the State. Our boys will endeavor to accommodate them. Baton Rouue now has a fine base ball park on the Garrison grounds and un usual interest in the national game is dis played in that city this season. The lead ing clubs are the Dixies, Ramos and Peek a-Boos, and the Donaldsonville nines hope to have an early opportunity of testing the skill of the Capital city players. Lavaz IsePcrsox.--On Wednesday last Assistant State Engineer Sidney F. Lewis, accompanied by Parish Surbve' and Levee Inspector M. W. Darton, examined the lev ees on the left bank of the river in this parish and found them generally in fine condition, though caving banks render it necessary that four new pieces of levee be built on that side of the river during the current.ear. The lines for a new levee at Messrs. Crossley & Sons' Mount Houmas plantation have been run and the contract for its construction tendered to Messrs. James & laginty. It is to extend from the angle in the old levee near the head of New River iane 4POwn through the front of the Mount Houmas quarters and a short dis tance behind the residenee, the length of the proposed new entbjnkment to be about 2000 feet. The' 6thb ipoints where levees will be necessary are at ..iverton upper line, Riverton lower line and Orange Grove low er line, and each of the htnbapltments will neasure from 1000 to' 1200 feet in length. At Orange Grove the bank is caving badly, and barely three feet of the crown of the levee remains at one place. ' Mr; Lewis in tends to return to Ascension during the coming week and inspect the levees 'on the right bank of the river. Thousands May So. Mr. T. W.

That on and after June 15 the sum of sixty dollars per annum be appropriated to pay the river rerry for the crossing, both ways. of witnesses in criminal cases before the Dis trict Court. Mr. Bullion offered the following, which was seconded by Mr. Klopmsn and carried: Resolved. That the Justices of the Pence and Constables of the ninth and tenth Justice wards of the parish of Ascension be paid the sum of seventy-five dollars per annum each, by the parish, for performing all Coroner's duty as well as all criminal duties coming under their jurisdiction-the same to take effect from its passage.

Mr. Klopman spoke earnestly in support of his resolution, calling upon the President to witness that he had always opposed the pay ment in full of Mr. Lefort's claim; bnt he now thought the Police Jury would have cause for satisfaction by making this last effort to liber ate the parish of this, the last of its old debts. The motion to adopt being seconded, a vote was taken, resulting against adoption.

Calling up the petitions recommending Mrs. Thbodule Duplessis and Mrs. Joseph Rodriguez and her daughter as worthy subjects for pen sion, Mr. Bullion said, in substance, that while it was a fact that the persons referred to were poor, yet be had reason to believe that their condition and circumstances were not such as to warrant the Police Jury in granting the aid prayed Tfor. The petitions were accordingly laid on the table indefinitely. The Finanoe 'Cmmittee examined the books and atcodnts 6f the Parish Treasurer and found them correct.
